Video Game General v8.01D : PC Gaming Golden Age, Big Box (Part 1)

Tried to curbside order some diapers and I managed to nab a series x from the target app on some random shit. Pretty skeptical on it even though I got the confirmation email, target cancels shit all the time.

If it’s legit I’ll probably cop the PS5 when Dad of War Ragnorak or FF16 comes out.

I’m not unhappy at all bro. You’re just in denial.

Black Cat was never about that.

Felicia Hardy is a Bad Selina Kyle clone who needs to keep on getting reinvent as the writers has no idea what to do with such a dull femme fatale. They had to make her the new King Pin to make her relevant. Her writing is worst than Carol Danvers.

I don’t care how you feel about the character personally dude. You said the character was about something she’s not. You’re wrong.

Look who going with their feelings.
Your girl is trash, deal with it.

I AM OUT.

You are so fucking stupid and hard headed that I’m surprised you find your way to this web address every single day. :rofl:

I love when people on forums/threads say they’re washing their hands of the ongoing argument but will either still keep on lurking or revisit the place a few hours later

While I can’t argue sexy cat superhero/villain is far from a unique trait or gimmick, Black Cat is pretty good when written well. Yeah she is usually being a foil for Spidey but her being a thief, luck based powers (when they remember she has them or Don’t depower her) and usually more playful tone makes her good IMO. But if the creators are not interested in using her traits to enhance the story it makes for boring shit can’t lie.

In games you literally have so few good ways to build a good story beat without it being exposition dumps, it is sad her best outing is Web of Shadows and assist power ups in the 16 bit games.

Web of Shadows is still the pinnacle of Spidey games. No shame in that. :joy:

Yeah, I got it for PC. Was giving it a spin last night, but I’m trying to figure out if I want to use controller or keyboard and mouse. I made my Empire pilot a woman named Darth Urmom.

I loved the video+his video on Red Dead 2. He talked about how in older GTA games you had multiple ways to finish missions, in games almost 20 years old, but in RDR2 if you stray just a little bit from what the mission wants you to do you get a game over screen.

Jakey is also noticing how samey a lot of AAA games feel. Points out all the bullshit fluff you have to deal with to get a little bit of gameplay.

He gets it.

A game over for going outside of a mission on a sand box, wow.

Jakey is my favorite youtuber by a country mile.

He and I are about the same age, have a lot of the same opinions about games, can’t really grow beards, but try.

Yeah, man. Jakey rules.
